Whooo! It’s been a while since I’ve blogged and no doubt, I’ve missed it! Being a mom, teacher, photographer, wife, and friend is no small task. It’s so important to take a minute to catch your breath. All you grammar peeps, I’m apologizing in advance. I’m just going to type and I’m sure there will be plenty of mistakes. What is life without them? OH! I have big news to share (excuse my squirrel brain), OUR FAMILY IS GROWING!

We are over the moon! The arrival of our new addition is highly anticipated. Josiah is going to make the sweetest big brother. He’s already spoiling me with daily belly kisses. I can’t wait to witness the bond he’ll share with his baby brother/sister. I made the decision to dedicate this blog to my family as well as my clients. We’re all just going through this beautiful, sometimes hectic (who am I kidding? mostly hectic) life together. Expect to see mommy posts, photography posts, faith posts, as well as education posts on this blog. Those are some of the most important things to me! I want to share my passions with you all. I also want to give you some behind the scenes in the life of Ariel Raquel. I’m soaking in every second of the current season my family is experiencing. I can’t wait to share more! Coming Soon….. you know if I’m not chasing my four year old around, editing photos, or teaching Science to the coolest littles in all the land.
